The notion that DeBoise doesn't cut a side body would be news to him.

Hi Gents, I know this is an old post, but I just came across it.

I just wanted to correct the point above. My Father (Edwin), only cuts with a side body for one specific client and that is because his old coats at A&S cut by Mr Halsey had a side body back in the 80's, and early 90's so he is used to and enjoys a very flared skirt. The Gent in question is now in his late 80's and is still, one of the most dapper and well-dressed men I've ever come across!

Cheers,

Matthew DeBoise

Awesome! Gennaro is a really old school Neapolitan gentleman in addition to being one of the last great working tailors of his generation in Naples. Have fun in Naples!

Looks great! I'm excited to work with him this July.
